Title: Unsung

Author: chibidark angel

Summary: well, I'm not too sure of a summary, but basically, it's like this: rei and kai like each other, but kai's being his usual meany self, so rei's getting all upset, but he vows to get to know kai, it's just hard cause kai keeps ignoring him!

Warning: em, there is shonen-ai, yaoi, I will probably do a lemon, there will definitely be lime and fluff! Oh, but before that, there will be some angst, but not a lot! Cause I don't really like that, sooo there you go! And there will be Mariah bashing, cause I seriously can't stand that girl!

A/N: hidee-ho! Yeah, this is my first beyblade fic, I'm starting ANOTHER one, not good, but this got stuck in my head after I heard the Vanessa carlton song 'unsung' which is what this fic is named after, cause I am reeeaaallllyyyy crap at titles! ^_^V

Prologue

"Here, I'll help you."

Those were the first words Kai said to Rei after the world championships, something which surprised the hell out of the amber-eyed blader, and he could only nod mutely as Kai took his arm across his shoulders, slipping his won arms around Rei's waist, so that he could walk better, as he still had a limp after his battle with Brian.

"Thanks," Rei finally managed to mutter, a fain blush spreading across his cheeks.

"Well, we've got to get back into training as soon as possible, we still have a lot of work to do, so the sooner you fully recover, the better," Kai answered gruffly,  but looked across at Rei, flashing him a small smile.

Rei turned his head to smile back, when he found himself frozen, captivated by those crimson orbs, who's depths held so many unregistered, hidden thoughts, emotions. The two boys gazed at each other for what seemed like an eternity, and they were starting to lean in towards each other, when there was a sudden cough and a screech of, "Hell? I'm leaving!"

The two teens jumped, faces flushing, and turned to see a mountain of pink fuzz bobbing infront of them.

"Oh, Mariah," Rei frowned, slightly dazed, "Yeah, bye."

"Cya," Kai offered, cringing at the girl's infuriated red face which clashed horribly with the neon blob sitting on her head.

Kai and Rei both mentally shuddered as her face grew even redder, if that was possible, and she screamed, "That's ALL! We mightn't see each other for years Rei!" in an extremely annoying and whiney tone.

Wincing, Rei replied, "Em, bye for now?" in a questioning tone.

"Yeah, have a nice trip," Kai added, grinning smugly at the twisted look of hatred she sent him, as he wrapped his arm even tighter around Rei's waist, which only proved to make her even more angry.

"EUGH!" she screamed and stomped off onto the plane.

It was obvious to everyone that Mariah liked Rei, a lot, even he knew, but he only liked her in return as a sister, or a friend, nothing more, and he never would, (damn straight!) but still, the thought that someone was out for Rei, stirred up unbidden emotions inside of Kai, feelings of jealousy, and a sort of protectiveness and possessiveness over Rei, despite the fact that there was nothing going on between him and Rei, however much Kai wanted there to be.

Yes, Kai had accepte, after many months of confusion and denial, his feeling for Rei; infact, he'd fallen in love with the raven-haired beauty, and fallen hard, but he could never do anything about it- too many years of training and perfection had bred his unemotionless down to a T. (don't ask about that, I heard that saying before somewhere, and I like it)

Rei shivered in delight, and he felt his legs turn to jelly as Kai wrapped his arm even tighter around his waist.

'It's probably just to make sure I'm more secure, and don't fall, come on, breathe, don't get your hopes up,' Rei told himself.

'But oh god, he's got some muscles, hello baby!' another voice squealed in his head, 'go on, just reach down and give those biceps a squeeze, go on!'

Rei but his lip, feeling the sudden urge, but managed to resist temptation.

'No,' he stated firmly.

'Ah, go on,' the voice urged him.

'I said no,' he retorted.

'Go on, you know you want to.' (heehee, my saying, followed by, 'all the cool kids are doin it!' eh… don't ask ^_^V)

'Well, maybe-'

'So, go on!'

'NO!'

'Fine, fine, have it your way,' the voice sighed, and was silent.

Rei smiled in triumph, and turned his head to see Kai gazing at him strangely.

"Eh, I was just in a bit of a daze there, you know, lost in my thoughts," Rei grinned sheepishly.

"It's alright, come on," Kai instructed, "We've got to get back to the hotel, the others are waiting for us, we're all going out for a meal, to celebrate."

With that, the two teens exited the airport the airport and hailed a taxi, while Rei leaned on Kai a bit more than he needed to, but they both secretly enjoyed it. When they arrived back at the hotel, they could see Tyson and Max waiting at the front of the building, waving at them and shouting, "hey there buddies!"

Kai paid the driver, and without turning to Rei, muttered stoically, "There's Tyson and Max. I have to go have a shower," and without another word, quickly opened the door, got out and strode into the building, glaring at Tyson, who stuck out his tongue and muttered darkly, "Well, good day to you too, Mr. Sourpants."

Rei was left sitting there in the taxi, looking after Kai, feelings of sadness and slight anger welling up inside him.

"What is wrong with him, why does he keep closing me off like that?" he murmured, puzzled, before pulling himself out of the taxi and thanking the driver.

"I promise Kai, I'm going to figure you out and open you up," he vowed silently, gazing at the retreating figure. (is it just me, or does he make kai sound like a lock or something?)

Well that's it, what do you think? Pleeze let me know what you think all reviews are welcome, and flames shall be met with oil-soaked rags and a catapult! Farethee well! ^_^
